Macro To Find Text URLs And Activate In Worksheets
Dec 3, 2012
I need macro that can search through worksheets and identify text urls (pair Networks - World Class Web Hosting.) within a cell and activate just those URLs that are not activated. I have many workbooks containing many worksheets. The URL references are always located somewhere down in column A after word 'Source:' but can be in the middle of string of text in that row after 'Source:'
I generated my urls to online photos, I referenced cells where some are only numerical (ex. 479) while others contain a numerical/text mix (ex. 3014-RACK). Here is my url code in excel...
Actually,, I have some software, which I have opened in notepad, and then copied the data into excel.
The data is a mess.
It has had loads of unwanted characters etc. I've managed to clean this all up now. What I'm looking for if possible is to extract all URLs to another worksheet.
As an example, I have 1 sheet that has 1654 rows of data, that goes right to column DK.
All URLs now have 1 space before it and 1 space after it, For example:
(space)[url](space) or (space)[url](space)
If possible, I would like to be able to run a macro that would look at this worksheet and find all the URL's, then return them into a new spreadsheet in a list,,, and if possible not returning duplicates, (If it does find dups if a pop up could mention how many dups deleted) if this is hard to do then no worries at all.
As a note,I'd spent a while looking for a macro to delete all unwanted characters,, found 1,, so for info purposes, I post it below, seemed to run fine; but if there are any other alteratives/suggestions, I'm all ears
I have a column of cells over 2000 rows that have a bunch of text in each cell. In the middle of this text in each cell are websites (not hyperlinked). I was wondering if someone wrote a macro or formula to extract URLs located in a bunch of text? I can parse this out but doing some delimiting but that will take longer.
I have two sheets, which has data in columns A-J (10) on both sheets and but (sheet2) will have more data records than (Sheet1). I would like to be able to run a vba macro, which can find duplicate rows between the two sheets, by matching up only 8 columns, excluding column's E and G between the two sheets and showing the output duplicates in both sheets in green highlight.
I have attached my sample data for further reference. [URL] .....
The sample file, shows data in sheet1 and sheet2, and the desired output should be sheet1 and sheet2, highlighting (2,3,4,5,6,7,9,19,11,13) rows green in both sheets.
I'm looking to build a macro which will automatically transfer a line of text from one worksheet to another within the same workbook. Once the macro has been run, the text in the original sheet should disappear and re-appear in the other worksheet. It should appear in the same column, but different line from the original.
I have a cell (B2) in which there is a formula referencing the value of another cell with the purpose of generating a URL- ="[URL] such that when a numeric value is entered in B3, B2 is made to contain the full URL including B3 as a unique identifier.
I have a macro which straightforwardly copies B2 and pastes its value in the same cell, rendering the text value of the URL.
How do I go about activating the URL as a hyperlink in the macro? It seems like if I click in the cell and hit return, or right-click/Hyperlink.../OK I'm creating a macro to reference the exact unique identifier present at the time that I'm recording the macro- e.g. if B3 is "123", I'm setting the macro to set B2 as [URL] rather than the actual unique identifier in B3.
Has anyone successfully activated the content of a cell as a hyperlink dynamically based on its exact content?
Is there a way to activate a Macro with a conditional in one of the cells? It's like this, I want that if the content of A2 changes to "True" then C2,D2 and E2 change to bold and the background color change to yellow. Is there a way to do this?
Basically, I'd like my macro to be activated whenever the value in cell A4 changes. Cell A4 has a numerical value between 1 and 10. The macro clears a contents table. Here it is:
Sub Clear() Sheets('Form').Select Range("H4:L10").Select Selection.ClearContents End Sub
How to get the (module) macro to be activated whenever cell A4 changes value?
I need to write a macros that will activate another macros whenever the cell "I4" is modified. So far it is not working the way it suppose to. Maybe anyone can spot a mistake? Here are both Macros that I have: ....
I have an excel file that I want a macro to run when the cell changes to "Yes" (location B21). The cell options right now in a drop down list is "Yes" or "No". The Macro is called helper. How do I get this to work when they pick yes or no from the drop down list. I wanted to attach the file in this post, but it will not let me. I can email it to anyone who would like to work on it.
I have code to do what I need to do currently but it only works for one cell. If I try to get it to copy down through a range it loops endlessly back and forth between two values. I am sure that there is an easy way of accomplishing this. I would appreciate anyones help or suggstions. Thanks.
I want macro2 to activate whenever there is a change in Range(C25:C5000). I want macro2 to activate only once even if there are 10 changes to the cells within this range. I tried the code below but it does not work.
Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate() If ActiveCell.Row > 25 And ActiveCell.Row < 5000 And ActiveCell.Column = 3 Then macro2 End If End Sub
I would like to have a macro where I can find a word once it has found that word I need to enter in that cell a formula of index/match. Then copy and paste this formula to the end in the same column where there is values.
VBA macro to search for text in range C10:C35 and, if that text is found, sum values in the same rows in range D10:D35.
Searched text will usually be a substring of the cell's content, for example:
D10 contains "Things to be done next month" I want the macro to find "next month".
Besides adding values, I also would like the macro to mark the cells where the text was found, maybe by changing the font color to red, or the font face to bold.
I am writing a code that has a sheet change event linked to call on a number of macros. The vba works fine until I change another cell and it activates the same macro.
VB:
Private Sub Workbook_SheetChange(ByVal sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range
Select Case Range(BI47) Case "1"
[Code]....
I have tried if statements and everything else I can find, most will not work, others report errors. The code and macros will be the same on many sheets but work independently and BI27 is the source of the change
Is it posible that when data or text is entered into a cell and the enter key is pushed that this can either run a macro or activate a hyperlink to go to another worksheet for user to follow further instructions?
OR instead of going to another worksheet a pop up message appears with instructions and then can be OK'd to remove message and proceed?
I am new to VBA & not sure of the full understanding of code copied from a workbook which worked on the same principle but with Monthly (12) tabs. I thought if modified to show weeks, the macro would be able to locate the current week tab & day/date within - but upon opening, the cell stops at WK19 & column O - rather than WK43, Column N (which changes daily).
I have a program that has all Excel Workbooks in seperate instances of Excel. There is a very sound reason for doing this.
The user has maybe 3 to 10 workbooks open. There are times when a workbook is active and has a Macro Link to open one of the already open workbooks.
When the user clicks the link, they naturally get an error message stating that the workbook is already open. Then they have to close the error msg and click on the Macrosoft Tab and look thru the list of open workbooks and then click the one they are looking for. Additionally, in this Menu Program the user really doesn't even have to know the name of the various workbooks.
I hope everyone will believe me when I state that this program works berautifully.
Right now I am simply cleaning up and making a few little things work better.
QUESTION When the user clicks on a macro link that is to open a workbook that is already open, how - On error - can I have the macro continue on and activate the requested workbook - - - Please remember they are all in separate instances of Excel.
Since the code I'm using can determine if the requested workbook is already open, I think there has to be a way to activate that workbook.
I have a multi-sheet workbook. The first sheet is a summary of results from the rest of the workbook. I would like this summary sheet to auto-refresh itself each time the sheet is activated. The VBA code triggered by the Worksheet/Activate event feeds some parameters out to other sheets, then copies back the results to the summary sheet of the workbook.
While doing so, it keeps "reactivating" the first sheet, causing it to get into an endless loop that is triggered by the Worksheet/Activate event. Essentially, I'd like the Worksheet/Activate event to go dormant for 15 seconds or so each time it is triggered.
